This [Ed Hardy apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/human-made-drop) parody video called, “Ed Hardy Boyz” on ‘Funny or Die,’ features Nick Kroli as Bobby Bottleservice and Jon Daily as Peter Paparazzo and is a hilarious look at the Ed Hardy empire.

The Ed Hardy label has attained an astronomic level of popularity among [streetwear and tattoo fans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saint-mxxxxxx) worldwide and deserves to be poked-fun at in an [entertaining parody](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reinfell-ad) like ‘Ed Hardy Boyz.’

Watch as the two ‘Ed Hardy Boyz’ super sleuths try to solve ‘The Case of the Missing Sick Belt Buckle.’
